“When I look at some of the other reference books that
come to Reference Reviews, with their double alphabetical
sequences, inadequate cross-referencing, no thought given to a
choice of sought terms for headings, no indexes, no mention of
useful web resources, etc., I am really impressed with the design
of this book. ” (Reference Reviews, 1 December
2012)

The encyclopedia is brilliant-it pulls together an amazing,
diverse, and international group of scholars to produce a work that
will, I believe, define peace psychology in the future.
